Stephen Miller can push racist agenda, but ‘the president has his back’
When the Southern Poverty Law Center’s blog Hatewatch revealed on Tuesday that Stephen Miller had pushed racist—and explicitly white-nationalist—content over and over again in 2015 and 2016, President Donald Trump’s senior policy adviser didn’t need any reassurances from his boss or his colleagues that his job was safe. Practically everyone in the building already knew it.
Katie McHugh, a disgraced former Breitbart staffer who provided Hatewatch with the trove of emails, told the blog that Miller had personally flagged for her in July 2015 an American Renaissance “article about crime statistics and race.” American Renaissance is a white-supremacist website beloved by fascists and alt-right adherents. McHugh added, “I responded in the affirmative because I had read it. Many of us [on the far-right] had read it.
By the White House’s own logic, Miller, who is Jewish, could also be charged with anti-Semitism. According to two people who’ve heard Miller go on protracted rants on the topic of immigration, many of the preferred targets for Miller’s ire also happen to be Jewish. One of his biggest bêtes noires over the past several years has been Facebook CEO Mark Zuckerberg, largely due to the internet entrepreneur’s support for immigration reform during the presidency of Barack Obama.
In the years since, Miller has been a main driver, if not the architect, behind some of President Trump’s most brutal policies and proposals, including the “Muslim ban” and the separation of immigrant families. Miller routinely advocates for dramatically cutting legal immigration, as well as imposing lower and lower caps on the number of refugees Washington will allow into the country.
